Hmmmmmm

Have you ever been going 5 different directions & never going anywhere?

I guess what makes someone sit up & pay attention, is that no matter what you
do or how much you put into something, some people just don't get it.
I guess in a way it really doesn't matter to some but it does to me, so YES IT DOES MATTER.

You can plan and talk it up & put it all on a web site. You can print up posters & flyers and do all the right stuff that leaders are suppossed to do, but sometimes they just don't get it.
Frustrated, not really. I feel sad that a fellowship that could have gone deeper didn't. It didn't
because of the world's pull on today's students. For example last night. An amazing night of bonding with other students from other churches and other denominatons. A small but incredible group of middle school girls came & were blessed because they came.
There are SOOOOOOOOO many things going on in students heads these days it's amazing. School, homework, dancing, gymnastics, band practice, dating and relationships much less the jobs to buy the car & the insurance so we can all go faster & faster. Jesus is hardly on the Interstate but He is at the rest stops along life's highway and when we can take the time to stop, He is calmy waiting to talk about where you are in life. Sometimes you've got to slow down to grow.
It's never about us but ALWAYS about HIM.

Till next time,
TC
